Logging in and playing pub more than 15 minutes a day for multiple days in a row will now earn you a loyalty bonus. This bonus will continue to increase until day 7, where you will receive a mega-bonus between $25K and $250K.

You can now sponsor a Terr or Shark on freq 0 and 1 by using !st and !ss. The money will be provided every minute. For example, !st 100 will give $100 each minute to the Terr on your freq, allowing them to afford bursts and ports. Players have to be actively playing to receive the sponsorship. When you leave, the sponsorship will automatically finish, or you can type !st/!ss by itself to cancel at any time.

"You're a gentleman," they used to say to him. "You shouldn't have gone murdering people with a hatchet; that's no occupation for a gentleman."

!buy ballpower charges up the ball for 30 minutes, making it increase the strength of weapons when held. An interesting buy for LTs, in order to get those legendary L4 bombs. (Currently set to 10min; will be increased to 30 on next bot reboot.)

!buy greet:<msg> leaves a message and $5000 for the next player who joins the game

Large !fruit wins ($100K+) are now shown in arena messages

Extensive testing done on !fruit odds. (Thanks to Iam for help in testing.) After running 50,000,000 spins on the old algorithm, the payout rate was found to be slightly too low (around 90% payout rate if not receiving the bonus for in-game !fruit playing).

Added a new possible win on the fruit machine to compensate. "Spec-Hunting an LT Matchup" is Spectator, Terr and Levi, and will give 7x payout (or 8x if in-game).

New odds were tested (30,000,000 spectator spins, 50,000,000M in-game spins). Payouts have improved on average by roughly 3% for spectators and 4% for in-game players. In-game players now receive odds similar to some of the loosest slot machines in the world. ("Loose slots" are slot machines set up in casinos in a prominent, central location that can be seen from many directions, specifically set at a high payout rate to encourage people to play nearby, lower-paying machines.) ...Good luck!

!stats now shows info about daily bonus. 3 states are: playing now will start the bonus cycle; playing now will give you the daily bonus; playing now will not give you daily bonus, but the next stage will be available in X time. Also shows number of consecutive days you have received the bonus. Please report any bugs you see in this feature

Decoy cost reduced from 1400 to 900

Potential fix for new players entering zone and not seeing walls/money after download

Raised !fruit win announcement to $150000 and above

Fireworks now include sound

!servertime shows summer time in regions that use it

Being in spec no longer reduces total time played (was leading to extreme playtime displays on !stats while in spec)

Round start !warp FR spawns also include mid-spawns. (Pending update; currently all !warps are midspawns) This may allow removal of the heavy-handed "no levs/LTs on roof at round start" rule

Everyone in mid will now be warped at round start. (Pending update)

!afkcheck available for all players. Once 2 players !afkcheck someone, a challenge code will be sent to the player in question. They must respond with the correct code in 30 seconds or be sent to spec. (Pending update)

Players will automatically be disconnected after 5 deaths without firing weapons. (Previously 8)

!switch reward for balancing teams now $1400. (Previously $750)

!stats should now correctly show when next loyalty bonus is available

Created foundation for cutting down on green spam, informing via freq or even public message for less-important details in the game.

30 second timer before round ends (and 5 second timer before round start)

"Flag contested" cooldown. If the flag was taken by the enemy in the last second, the timer will not advance. This should create more interesting end-of-round battles, and allow an attacking team to contest the flag more easily if they push hard at the end

Players can once again !shufflevote, but it requires at least two people, and a majority of votes to shuffle

MUCH more even team shuffles, splitting up terrs, sharks, fighters, and "the rest" evenly between freqs

!buy STFU now lasts 10 minutes

Exciting newsletter registration feature that will bother you to subscribe until you tell it to go away twice (please subscribe ... Wirah puts a ton of effort into the newsletter every week)

Loyalty mega-bonus increased across the board

Smarter midspawn conditions: rather than a flat population #, also takes into consideration if both teams have a Terr, and ignores Levis and duelers for the purpose of judging arena size

!buy purepub/sortapurepub is now anonymous

Notification of any active buys every 5 minutes, such as festival, purepub, etc.

Kill-o-thon reward now scales with the number of kills made

Kill-o-thon tells you number of KoTs you've won each time you win

Small reward for 2nd and 3rd place KoT winners

Levis and Terrs are now warned before being warped for being on the roof before the start of a round

!forgive changed to np to make it easier to forgive players who accidentally TK you

TSL

Squad vs world!

!backfill re-enabled

6v6 in base now possible

TWD

TWDBot: Can now use !lfs to indicate you are looking for a squad

TWDBot: !showlfs shows all players looking for a squad, and their associated TSL ratings

General

Resolution limits removed from almost all arenas
